No Chemicals or Chemical Dyes
We use only natural plant/mineral based dyes; choose from Indigo blue, Pomegranate green or Charcoal grey.
We use no bleach or other chemical treatments or dyes in our production process.
The fibres are hand-harvested, washed in pure Himalayan water and hand-spun, weaved and stitched.

NATURAL DYES
Because we use only natural dyes and dyes our fabrics by hand in small batches, the colour achieved can vary from item to item. Therefore photographs are indicative only. For example, sometimes the shade is darker or lighter than usual. This is all because of the strength of the materials used as well as the water temperature and other factors which help give each item its own unique character. If you are unsure of the colour or have a specific shade in mind, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss with you to help make sure you get the backpack you want.

SUPPORTING RURAL LIVELIHOODS IN NEPAL
We work with a small group of Nepali handcrafters and local communities harvesting wild fibres to bring you these yoga accessories. We support rural livelihoods and cottage industries in Nepal by providing a wider market for their produce to help continue traditional skills and indigenous knowledge. By buying this item you are helping to support rural farmers in Nepal.

We do not mass-produce any of our range, but buying operate a batch process system. This means that all our items are made with that bit more care and love - and you can see that in the finished item!
